Wiimote Plus

How the shit is this lighter than just a normal Wiimote? Maybe its not, but man this makes things feel a bit different playing Wii Sports Resort. Not enough to really matter, but I found it a bit nicer.

Now to my anger: So my dumb ass supports Nintendo by buying all these add-ons, just to be screwed 6 months later when they release a better version for the same price. Honestly, I feel like they should do a recall on the Wiimotion plus accessory because I feel a bit cheated. I have 6 friggin' Wiimotes already! True I "need" 2 more but still...

As an owner of 2 Wii's you need 8 Wiimotes so don't be too angry. You're closer to a full set thanks to Nintendo's add-on scheme!

It does feel pretty close to the same weight after throwing in my rechargeable battery. It is amazing how they did that. Combine the Wiimote with Wii MotionPlus to get a product that weighs the same or less than an original Wiimote. Those magicians at Nintendo are always up to something!

It feels great in the hand to have that 1 to 1 precision without the extra weight. I really love this because my peripherals that aren't WiiMotion Plus compatible, like my table tennis paddle set, I can use now in Wii Sports Resort!

I think these are not only lighter, but also cheaper. The full one to one experience for only $40.

I got this a month ago off ebay after no shop had any in stock or knew what a Wii Remote Plus was. So much for Australia getting it first in the world when nobody knew about them. Some shops still don't sell them now but they have the Wii bundle with Remote Plus' in them. And some shops still sell the old bundles. Its a complete mess... Anyways I got the black one and I'm lovin it. Its so good to be able to have a motion plus remote without the extra length and weight. It also goes nicely with my black nunchuk and classic controller pro. It didn't stay pure for long though as I got these cool Wii remote stickers in a Nintendo magazine that have a different theme and when you move them around the picture changes. There's a Skyward Sword, New Super Mario Bros DS, DKC Returns and Metroid Other M sticker. I put the Zelda sticker on the black remote because its my favourite and the Mario one on my white remote. I plan on getting a regular blue remote at half price before they go out of stock as I have a spare Motion Plus and I'll put the DK sticker on that one.

So Matthew999, you have a collection of multi-colored Wiimotes? Red, White, Black, and soon Blue. What about Pink?

I wonder why Nintendo didn't send some of those controller skins our way.

I, for one, don't like putting sticky goofy skins on my already cool looking Wii. People say its to personalize but how personal can it be when the skins are manufactured in the millions? LOL

@Streex
I don't think I mentioned having a red remote but I'm actually going to import one from Japan when I have enough money for it (and a red nunchuk too) Sorry but I don't think I'll be getting pink. (besides then I'll have 5 remotes which is a little unnecessary)

@ZeldAnTales
They're skins for your Wii remote, not the Wii itself. I didn't put them on to make it personal, I put them on because they look cool. I'm surprised you're not interested in the Zelda one, it is pretty cool.

I thought you got a red Wii for Christmas. Didn't yours come with a red Wiimote?

No I didnt get a red Wii for Christmas. I know I never said that. Didn't Nintendo Furniture say he got one?

I'm the only kid on my block with Mickey and Oswald on my Wii!
